"I don't think examining the idea of where to draw the limit is a bad one, nor do I think Neo's limit is rediculous, but I don't think it is all unreasonable for other people to have different ideas of where to draw the line then Neo's or mine or yours" What is there "bad" in civil discussion. However, I found that detour somewhat annoying--mostly because I know that Neo does not define the latitude of acceptable expression.

Neo can't actually enforce his opinion because he is not the thread moderator, and I suspect he would not try to enforce his opinion if he was the moderator. I don't intend to enforce limits unless someone gets seriously personally abusive towards someone else. I've asked just what it was that he found so abusive. He never answered. As best I can guess, it was the use of the phrase "invisible friend". Sorry, but I don't think that qualifies. And I'm tired of discussing this subject. Instead of arguing endlessly about what the rules of the game will be, let's start playing and we'll call the fowls when - and if - they occur.
